New to Diablo 2 please help

I have just started playing single player mode and need some basic help. I have a lev 16 Barb and reading over the boards now I know that I have no idea what i am doing. Is there a sp basic guide out there?

There is many good barb builds, conc barb, zerker and frenzier to name few. Check our FAQ, you will find lots of useful information there. If you have any questions feel free to ask them here, we won't bite

Welcome to the SPF! :howdy: I hope you enjoy your stay and learn lots about the game(or shall I say addiction). Maybe tell us a little about your barb you have started. We will be more than happy to answer any questions that you may have. And like everyone else says: Read the FAQ and check out the guides list, there are two VERY nice guides for the Barb lurking around there.​

the FAQs have lots of good info in them, as others have pointed out, but the real basics aren't generally given a lot of air-time. if you tell us what sort of problems your having, we can almost certainly help you out.

:lol: Welcome to the show. Reminds me of my first character, also a barb. Never played the game before so I just put points everywhere. If it's worth anything, he still gained Slayer status. Right now he's clvl 51 and his best skill is dying.

max warcry, max BO, put all the rest into some attack skill... perhaps concentrate? with all the monsters not moving for 6 seconds, you should be able to get a little bit further even thoguh your damage output will suck. :lol:

As stated, the stickies at the top of this page will give you more information than you could ever hope to use. And for any questions not readily answered, this forum is a great resource, and a pretty decent place to hang out. Enjoy your stay here.
